O’s Notes: Keyboardist Vince Mendoza has assembled a wealth of talent to perform on Nights On Earth. Luciana Souza (vocals), John Abercrombie (g), John Scofield (g), Joe Lovano (sax), Alex Acuna (perc), Bob Mintzer (sax), Christian McBride (b) and Luis Conte (perc) are just a few of the musicians employed along with the Metropole Orkest. They play a dozen Latin fusion originals that are arranged and conducted by Mendoza. This is a rich experience that blossoms on successive listening.
